Blu Stratos - English/Italian edition

More than fifty years after its presentation, the Lancia Stratos remains an absolute icon capable of a transgenerational charm. Marcello Gandini’s lines have made it the most reproduced car in the world in scale models, the three World Rally victories have made it the bête à gagner, the “beast made to win” with an aura of unbeatability that remains so even after other cars – even other Lancias – they won more than it. The first car conceived from the beginning to race in rallies, it owes its success also to a team of tuners and service technicians prepared, creative and capable of sacrificing themselves. This book, through the memories of Piero Spriano collected by Massimo Condolo, tells that world through the history of MFS, the company of Claudio Maglioli, Luigi Foradini and Piero Spriano who for ten years has supported the Lancia Racing Department in the preparation and assistance of Flavia, Fulvia and Stratos, including the bleue de France Stratos of the Chardonnet team, one of which will be (and remains) the most victorious rally car ever built.
